Having lived in Western Washington for most of my life, I don't understand why so few writers locate their works in this magnificent area.
The young adult novel "The Fox Island Cup" by Gene L. Nihart is set in the South Puget Sound near the city of Tacoma. Fox island is a not far from the Narrows bridge with connects Tacoma with Kitsap County.
Twelve year old Sammy loves sailing her boat "The Gull" through the waters near Fox island and dreams of beating the rich kids in The Fox island cup race.
Even for those who know little about sailing(like myself) you will enjoy the strong, likable characters and exciting story of The Fox Island Cup.
